I've noticed a few things too since I upgraded to Mavericks. They mostly have to do with style.

If I highlight a line of text in two different font sizes and then change the font size, not all the text will change size. Usually the larger font type won't change. I have to highlight it on its own to change its size.

I had an odd problem whenI was setting indents. I was setting the indent to .5, but after while Nisus set one line to .46 and the other to .47. I went back in and changed them back to .5 and they didn't change again.

I think in both cases the font I was using was Avenir.

I also have this annoying problem that the scroll bar on the tools palette blocks out some of the information on the palette. For instance, it covers one of the buttons to change the font size.

I wonder if you're not being confused by a change we made with how the palette steppers (up/down arrows) work. They now adjust all selected values individually, whether it's font size, paragraph spacing, etc.

For example, suppose you had selected a piece of text with two font sizes, one word of size 12pt, and another with a size of 20pt. If you click the up arrow once, you'd wind up with font sizes 13pt and 21pt respectively, not a uniform font size of 13pt.

If you want to enforce a consistent value across all selected text, you can do any one of the following:
1. Hold down the Command key when clicking the up/down arrows.
2. Change the font size by clicking into the text field and typing in a new font size using the keyboard.
3. Enforce the first selected existing font size uniformly by clicking into the text field and pressing the Enter (or Return) key.

I hope this is clear. Please let us know if you have any questions or this does not explain the behavior you observe.

This is an issue I'm not aware of. Is it something you can reproduce at will, or does it occur intermittently?
